This looks the weaker of the two division and it could well be a straight fight between the two ex-Sir Mark Prescott inmates in CELESTIAL PATH and High Secret. The former was given a stiff task on his hurdles debut and predictably found that a bridge too far and he’ll appreciate this easier grade and shaper track as he does have a question mark against his stamina. High Secret comes back from a long break here and he might just need this and having been a stayer on the Flat may find this too much of a speed test. The rest are probably destined for handicaps with Vincent’s Forever, Matts Legacy and Ramonex all looking to be heading down that route. 1. Celestial Path 2. High Secret 3. Vincent's Forever
